    BEFORE THE HEARING PANEL WELLINGTON REGIONAL COUNCIL IN THE MATTER of the Resource Management Act 1991 AND IN THE MATTER of Proposed Natural Resources Regional Plan for the Wellington Region STATEMENT OF REBECCA DAVIES ON BEHALF OF NEW ZEALAND DEFENCE FORCE SUBMITTER S81 & FURTHER SUBMITTER FS64 5 MAY 2017 STATEMENT OF REBECCA DAVIES ON BEHALF OF THE NEW ZEALAND DEFENCE FORCE (NZDF) – SUBMITTER S81 INTRODUCTION 1 My name is Rebecca Davies and I am employed by New Zealand Defence Force, (NZDF) within Defence Estate and Infrastructure, as Senior Environmental Officer (Statutory Planner). My role is national and “tri-service” which means I am responsible for planning issues associated with the activities and facilities of Army, Navy and Air Force throughout New Zealand. 2 Today I would like to make a short statement, providing background to NZDF’s submission and evidence. 3 I am familiar with NZDF’s submission on the Proposed Natural Resources Plan (PNRP) having directed consultants in preparation of those. 4 NZDF is a government department, an element of the Crown, and provides military capability as required by Government. NZDF is empowered and authorised in its activities by the Defence Act 1990 and by output agreements with Government. SUMMARY OF STATEMENT 5 Existing defence facilities within the Wellington region include the Trentham Military Camp. The Camp is a significant Defence facility and is of strategic importance regionally, nationally and internationally. The New Zealand Government purchased land for the Camp in1900, and the Camp has been in operation since before World War I. The continued operation of the Camp, and defence facilities in general, is essential in achieving Defence purposes under the Defence Act 1990 and an integral part of military capability.
  • December 2006 Climate Summary

    December 2006 Climate Summary

    NATIONAL CLIMATE CENTRE WEDNESDAY 3 JANUARY 2007 National Climate Summary – December 2006: Rather cool Temperature: One of the coldest Decembers in the last sixty years Rainfall: Well below normal in the north of both islands; above normal in the east, especially Canterbury Sunshine: Sunnier than normal in the north of both islands Wind: More frequent cold southerlies December was unusually cool for the time of year, due to more frequent southerly winds. Temperatures were 2 to 3 °C below normal (making it coldest start to December for many years) throughout New Zealand during the first half of the month, with little change during the last two weeks. For the month, many locations experienced one of their coldest December’s on record. Wellington recorded its coldest December in more than 70 years, while New Plymouth, Wanganui, and Blenheim had their coldest December in at least 60 years. The national average temperature was 13.7 °C (1.9 °C below normal), the lowest for December since 13.4 °C in 2004 and equal with 1946. Rainfall was less than 50 percent (half) of normal in the north of both islands. However, it was quite wet, with at least 200 percent (twice) of normal rainfall, in some eastern parts of the country, especially in Canterbury. A sunny month occurred in parts of Northland, Auckland, Buller, Westland, and Nelson. More anticyclones (‘highs’) predominated in the Australian Bight, extending ridges of high pressure into the South Tasman Sea. Mean sea level pressures were below average northeast of the Chatham Islands. As a result, cold southerlies were more frequent than average over New Zealand.

    New Zealand Defence Force: Deployment to East Timor – Performance of the Helicopter Detachment

    Report of the Controller and Auditor-General Tumuaki o te Mana Arotake New Zealand Defence Force: Deployment to East Timor – Performance of the Helicopter Detachment December 2002 Readers who are not familiar with all of the defence-related terms used in this report may find the terms explained in the glossary on pages 111-115. ISBN 0-478-18101-9 FOREWORD Foreword In November 2001 we issued our report on the New Zealand Defence Force’s (NZDF) Deployment to East Timor.1 That report looked at how the NZDF planned for the East Timor operation, prepared a joint force, and subsequently deployed that force to East Timor. We said in the November 2001 report that we would be reporting on a second examination of the roles performed by two particular elements of the New Zealand force in East Timor – helicopters and medical support. This report contains the results of the first part of that examination. It looks at the contribution of the Royal New Zealand Air Force’s helicopter detachment – looking mainly at planning for deployment during early to mid-1999, and operations from September 1999 to February 2000. I will shortly be publishing our report on the second part of the examination – Ministry of Defence: Deployment to East Timor – Performance of the Health Support Services. As with our earlier examination, the professionalism and helpfulness of the New Zealand Defence Force personnel in preparing this report have impressed us. I thank in particular the personnel from No. 3 Squadron and other Air Force units we spoke to for their willingness and co-operation.

    “You Bring It, We'll Bring It Out”

    “You Bring It, We’ll Bring It Out” Becoming a Soldier in the New Zealand Army A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Social Anthropology at Massey University New Zealand. Manawatū, Nina Harding 2016 Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Abstract The transition from civilian to soldier is a process of identity acquisition. Based on participant-observation, this thesis follows a cohort of new soldiers through the first year and a half of their careers in the New Zealand Army, from their first day of Basic Training to their first overseas deployment. Both the Army as an institution and its individual soldiers are explicitly self-reflexive, and I use not only academic theory but also soldiers’ own theories of identity and identity acquisition to make sense of the experience of becoming a soldier. I show that although recruits undergo change in becoming soldiers, they simultaneously retain pre-service identities. Using Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of practice, I argue that civilians join the Army because of a shared “primary habitus”, a pre-existing identification with action, productivity and continual self-improvement through facing challenges that forms recruits’ earliest embodied understandings of themselves. The relationship between this “practical” habitus and the new soldier habitus to be acquired is key to understanding the civilian-soldier transition.
